In the last few years, LinkedIn has become the professionals place to connect with other professionals.
People on LinkedIn have very high standards.
They are not really interested in being marketed too.
So you have to be sneakier about it.
Here are some great tips to making the most of your LinkedIn profile.
1.
Make sure you add your websites to your LinkedIn profile the right way.
Do not just put the name of your website as "website" or something to that effect.
Make sure you describe what it is.
The more keywords you have the more likely you are to have people find you when they search.
If your website is about social media marketing, title it that.
2.
Join Groups Put the keywords that have to do with your business in the search bar and find groups that have to do with your business.
The more groups you join the more people that will be able to find you that have the same interests as you.
Also participating and sharing your knowledge with groups members is a great way to show yourself as an expert in your field and gain their trust.
3.
Get recommendations This is a great way to show people on LinkedIn that you know what you are talking about.
The more people that recommend your services the more people that will be willing to work with you.
4.
Connect your other social media profiles to your LinkedIn profile.
There is a way to connect your Twitter and Facebook profiles to your LinkedIn profile.
This will make it easier for people on all social networking sites to find your profile on LinkedIn.
It will also give people more ways to hear what you have to say.
These tips work well for gaining business for any LinkedIn business.
The important part is to have information that your customers will want.
The more valuable information you give to people for free the more that they are willing to buy something from you later down the line.
Giving people on your social networking profiles valuable information will get them coming back for more and make them trust you.
